Can you use Grab Pabili for food?

Yes, GrabExpress Pabili is perfect to assist you in ordering your food if you want it right away.

It would even be faster than if you were to buy take out from a restaurant or an item in a grocery store since the rider can be near the store location.

Grab Delivery-Partners have a designated carrier box to ensure that your order arrives to you fresh.

Can I ask Grab to buy medicine?

Grab has truly been helpful in this very trying time where some communities are in strict lockdown or physically going out poses a risk to our health.

To buy an over-the-counter medicine, you need to go to the Pharmacies section in the GrabExpress Pabili.

If you need prescription medications, the delivery rider should be provided with the prescription receipt, a photocopy of your valid ID, and authorization letter.

How does Grab Pabili work?

The payment for the actual products, plus the delivery and parking fees, as applicable, is shouldered by the delivery recipient.

For example, if you ordered for yourself, the pick-up point will be the store location and the drop-off will be your address.

Once the delivery rider arrives, you will pay for the cost of the product plus the delivery fee.

If the rider drops by your house first to get the documents required for prescription medications, there will be an additional delivery charge.
